Boat Shrink Wrap In Deltaville, Virginia
Norton Yachts shrink wraps boats at our Deltaville boatyard, on the Middle Peninsula on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay. Boat owners from Middlesex, Mathews, Gloucester, and Lancaster counties and the Northern Neck bring their boats to Deltaville for shrink wrap rather than a yard further from the Bay.
The service department is open Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Shrink wrap service is done alongside our boat winterization services, since most boats are wrapped right after they're winterized and blocked for the season.
Framed And Vented
Boat shrink wrap service at Norton Yachts covers more than stretching plastic over the boat. A standard shrink wrap job includes:
Shrink wrap pricing does not include removal and disposal in the spring; that's billed separately when the boat comes out of storage.
Priced By Shape, Not Just Length
Boat shrink wrap cost is set per foot of boat length, and the rate depends on the boat's shape as much as its size. A boat with a T-top, mast, or flybridge takes more film and a more complex frame than a boat with a flat deck, so it costs more per foot.
Shrink wrap boat prices at Norton Yachts run from $15.00 per foot for a powerboat under 29 feet with no T-top, up to $27.50 per foot for a powerboat over 30 feet with a mast or flybridge. Sailboats and powerboats with a T-top up to 29 feet run $22.50 per foot, and powerboats over 30 feet with no flybridge run $25.00 per foot.
Every boat's shape is different, so the real number comes from a look at your boat, not a price list. Call (804) 682-3227 or schedule an appointment, and the service team will quote it once they know what you're wrapping.
Authorized Bennington Dealer
Yes. Norton Yachts is an authorized Bennington pontoon dealer, so shrink wrap pontoon boat service is routine work in our yard. Pontoons wrap the same way powerboats do: a frame built over the deck and rails, vented film sealed around the tubes and console, and padding anywhere the film could tear on hardware.
A pontoon's flat deck and low profile usually keep it toward the lower end of the per-foot range, but a T-top or bimini frame left up adds cost the same way it would on a powerboat.
At Your Slip Or At The Yard
Shrink wrap needs a frame built to the boat and a controlled space to heat-shrink the film properly, so full shrink wrap installation is done at our Deltaville boatyard, not at your slip. Norton Yachts does run a mobile service team for dockside repairs and seasonal checks, so some pre-wrap prep, like removing canvas or antennas, can be handled at your slip ahead of the haul.
Call (804) 682-3227 to find out whether your boat needs a prep visit before the haul, or can just come straight in.
Book Before The Rush
Book shrink wrap for October or early November, alongside winterization and boat haul-out services, ahead of the first hard frost. Wrapping early means the boat is protected before fall weather turns, and it avoids the scramble that comes with waiting until the last mild week of the season.
In the spring, the wrap and frame are removed and disposed of as a separate service, timed with your spring commissioning and launch.
Removal And Disposal
No. Shrink wrap pricing covers the frame and the initial wrap only; removal and disposal of the film in the spring is billed separately, timed with your spring commissioning and launch.
Four Steps
Boats must be fully pumped out before haul-out.
